Ladybird

What does it do

This program is a simple test harness for the raytracing capabilities of the Modular Renderer library.

It renders a ladybird, as viewed from a continually changing viewpoint, and displays it to a Windows window or an XWindows window.

Its possible to modify the makefile to remove the -DVIEWWIN or -DVIEWXWIN compile time flag. In this case the program will generate pictures of the animation as 200x200 24bpp bitmap files called lady0000.tif, lady0001.tif, ... etc..

The package

This document, and the LADYBIRD package are available from my home page at http://www.nyangau.fsnet.co.uk/.

The package contains this document and full source to the LADYBIRD program. Also available from my site is the MR and GBM modules that this code uses.

The source code is highly portable C++ code.

The only UNIX I've tested on is Linux. Other UNIXes probably need XOPTS changing in the makefile.
